Through the challenges of life we all are faced with showing compassion to others at some point, but to what extent. In this episode, I propose a different paradox that exists from the perspective of compassion, how we show it, learn it, live it, and accept the outcomes as they are and at face value. We must show compassion toward ourselves first before we can manage to take on the well-being of another. In this emotional concept, we reflect on how we can approach the meaning and the impact we will have on another when we show sympathy for their suffering.
